Stories from the Womb

Meer over het boek

What if Eve wasn't Adam's first wife? What if Freyja's greatest gem wasn't a stone? What if a mermaid could give up her fins and find her soul? Stories from the Womb by Anna Edington takes us on a journey to find what it means for women to tell their side of the story, and how an over-masculinized world has been giving us false beliefs for too long. Exploring the feminine voice through archetypes, this book shows how women's stories have been distorted. Through the powerful stories of Lilith, the first woman with night-dark skin, Freyja, a rebellious and talented jewelry maker, and Quaylo, a mermaid who finds her future without the love of a man, we gain a new understanding of their struggles and our own. Their tales are retold from the feminine perspective, capturing the power of the female voice. Through the interwoven stories, we glimpse the ultimate female challenge to be both free and worthy of love. The thrilling accounts help us to realize that women can step into their feminine to make positive changes we previously believed we needed to go through men to accomplish. Without men as gatekeepers to female expression, what truths will women finally tell?
